EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning 17th century print captures the elegance and opulence of a Voiture de Promenade, a private carriage used for leisurely outings by the French aristocracy. The Voiture de Promenade, also known as a landau, was a popular mode of transportation during this period, allowing the wealthy to travel in style and comfort. The image showcases a beautifully decorated carriage, drawn by two horses and attended by two running footmen. The footmen, dressed in liveried uniforms, are shown in mid-stride, keeping pace with the carriage as it moves along the cobblestone streets. This practice, known as "running footmen," was a sign of the owner's wealth and status, as it required the employment of multiple servants to maintain the appearance of constant motion. The carriage itself is adorned with intricate carvings and ornate details, reflecting the extravagance and craftsmanship of the time. The use of rich fabrics, gilded accents, and delicate glasswork further emphasizes the luxury and sophistication of this mode of travel. This print offers a glimpse into the history of private transportation during the 17th century, a time when the French aristocracy sought to display their wealth and power through grand displays of opulence. The Voiture de Promenade represented more than just a means of transportation; it was a symbol of status, prestige, and the good life. This print is a rare and valuable historical document, offering a fascinating look into the past and the world of the French aristocracy during the 17th century. It is a testament to the enduring allure of history and the beauty of the past, inviting us to appreciate the elegance and grandeur of a bygone era.
